Literature for prisoners
I came across your address in a book that was new but in the garbage. It was called Cuba and the Coming American Revolution, by Jack Barnes. I am writing this letter with the utmost respect and sincerity in hopes of obtaining the “Socialist Newsweekly, the Militant,” and any other literature that you can provide for prisoners.

American Axle strike
I think Militant readers need a report on the continuing strike by 3,650 American Axle workers in a number of plants in the United States. The strike began February 26. The workers, who are members of the United Auto Workers, are resisting efforts by their bosses to cut wages by up to 50 percent.

The strike has slowed or stopped production at 29 GM plants in North America. This includes a GM truck plant in Oshawa near Toronto and some auto parts plants in Ontario.

‘Militant’ Prisoners’ Fund
The Prisoners’ Fund makes it possible to send prisoners reduced rate subscriptions. To donate, send a check or money order payable to the Militant and earmarked “Prisoners’ Fund” to 306 W. 37th St., 10th Floor, New York, NY 10018.

The letters column is an open forum for all viewpoints on subjects of interest to working people. Please keep your letters brief. Where necessary they will be abridged. Please indicate if you prefer that your initials be used rather than your full name.
